Science Club

The Miller Kids University Science Club is a free online science club. We include recommendations for science books and museums.

Why study science?

Science helps us to use ideas and investigations to solve problems. We question and try to understand things that we may see or can affect us. Science gives us the opportunity to find out information, test ideas, seek explanations, and develop an understanding of the world.
